The contents of this monograph are two-scope. First, it intends to
provide a synthetic but complete account of the thermodynamic and
kinetic foundations on which the reaction path modeling of
geological CO2 sequestration is based. In particular, a great
effort is devoted to review the thermodynamic properties of CO2 and
of the CO2-H2O system and the interactions in the aqueous solution,
the thermodynamic stability of solid product phases (by means of
several stability plots and activity plots), the volumes of
carbonation reactions, and especially the kinetics of
dissolution/precipitation reactions of silicates, oxides,
hydroxides, and carbonates.
Second, it intends to show the reader how reaction path modeling of
geological CO2 sequestration is carried out. To this purpose the
well-known high-quality EQ3/6 software package is used. Setting up
of computer simulations and obtained results are described in
detail and used EQ3/6 input files are given to guide the reader
step-by-step from the beginning to the end of these exercises.
Finally, some examples of reaction-path- and
reaction-transport-modeling taken from the available literature are
presented. The results of these simulations are of fundamental
importance to evaluate the amounts of potentially sequestered CO2,
and their evolution with time, as well as the time changes of all
the other relevant geochemical parameters (e.g., amounts of solid
reactants and products, composition of the aqueous phase, pH, redox
potential, effects on aquifer porosity). In other words, in this
way we are able to predict what occurs when CO2 is injected into a
deep aquifer.
* Provides applications for investigating and predicting geological
carbon dioxide sequestration
* Reviews the geochemical literature in the field
* Discusses the importance of geochemists in the multidisciplinary
study of geological carbon dioxide sequestration
